K.M. Aldermere writes cozy paranormal romance set on a foggy stretch of the Pacific coast.

She came to fiction late, by way of a long detour through other forms of writing, and she found the cryptids waiting for her when she got there. The Hollow Tide Cryptid Cove series is her debut: ten interconnected standalones set in the same small Oregon town, each with its own couple and its own quiet reckoning, and all of them taking place in a world where humans and cryptids have lived openly together since the 1978 Disclosure Treaty.

When she’s not writing, she’s usually somewhere it’s raining.
